[Shrimp in a Kilt]

Thanks for taking the trouble Kev. Yeovil look to have the easiest run - Skunthorpe the toughest. But like all these comparisons, means nothing unless we are bagging a reasonable share of the points too.

 

[Sandbach Shrimper]

Anyone can beat anyone in this division.

 

[Kim Mitten]

I disagree Shrimpboy, most teams cannot come near to beating Yeovil. They have the odd blip but look to be easing to the League two championship.

 

[Shrimper2thecore]

Yes but they are a special exception to the rule, anyway the other 23 can beat each other then. I cant help but feel the season does hinge on the next seven games tho, because they are infat tough for the top 7 teams, not just us four, darlo and northampton have tough games too. Teams who take a lot of points are going up, if one was to lose all seven, then they will finish mid-table, so its a big time coming up.

 

[sufcintheprem]

I agree with S2tC. Yeovil have some real quality in depth IMO but Mansfield, a lower midtable side, certainly didn't look ten places worse than us yesterday.

It's just a case of wait til February's over before we can see. Nervy but should be good fun watching!

 

[Technician]

It would take a very brave individual to predict the outcome of any of these games to be honest, but we have to focus on consolidating fourth spot for Southend. If any of the teams in the top three have a blip, we must be able to target that, by being in the position to pounce on their mistakes. Just at the moment we aren't and unfortunately Yeovil, Scunny & Swansea have games in hand, which is an additional down side.

UP THE SHRIMPERS!
